Question from W;ChangingUsername (13:42, 19 May 2024)[edit]
Hello mentor
What (or how many newlines) do I have to insert in the source/visual editor to make my articles not appear lkke this: https://simple.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlamydia_pneumoniae? I mean that all of the sections are too close together when they're all collapsed. --W;ChangingUsername (talk) 13:42, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @W;ChangingUsername! I would assume that you are viewing that page on mobile which is where it allows you to collapse sections. The way they stick to each other is totally normal :).Cheers, Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 14:24, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks ^.^ W;ChangingUsername (talk) 14:39, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
- @W;ChangingUsername No worries! Let me know if you ever have additional questions. Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 14:43, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-21[edit]
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- The Nuke feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, will now correctly delete pages which were moved to another title. [1]
- New changes have been made to the UploadWizard in Wikimedia Commons: the overall layout has been improved, by following new styling and spacing for the form and its fields; the headers and helper text for each of the fields was changed; the Caption field is now a required field, and there is an option for users to copy their caption into the media description. [2][3]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 May. It will be on all wikis from 23 May (calendar). [4][5]
- The HTML used to render all headings is being changed to improve accessibility. It will change on 22 May in some skins (Timeless, Modern, CologneBlue, Nostalgia, and Monobook). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and report any related problems so that they can be resolved before this change is made in all other skins. The developers are also considering the introduction of a Gadget API for adding buttons to section titles if that would be helpful to tool creators, and would appreciate any input you have on that.

Question from Wikinewbienz (02:47, 21 May 2024)[edit]
Hi, I've been trying to make an additional to the profile page on Kim Cadzow, a New Zealand Cyclist but somebody called EasyAsPie keeps undoing the additional last paragraph and I don't know why? Any suggestions? --Wikinewbienz (talk) 02:47, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Wikinewbienz, I can see from the page's history that that user did not revert the change a fourth time, which would have consisted a violation of the WP:3RR rule. Instead, they added a citation to back up the statement that you added. Next time, please know that any statements about a living person likely to be challenged that you add must have a reliable source to back it up per WP:BLPRS. Let me know if you have other questions!Cheers, Cocobb8 (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 10:01, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Question from Mikeshardlemonaids (01:31, 25 May 2024)[edit]
So I have made one Wikipedia edit which changed the term steam locomotive to steam driven locomotive which I thought was a good improvement as it was more descriptive and it has been reverted do you have any reason why I don’t see a reason why someone would do this how do I prevent my edits from being reverted --Mikeshardlemonaids (talk) 01:31, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
